Chapter 155: Chapter 155: Are You Looking for Inspiration with Me?

"Suizi, are you overusing your brain?"

Wang Cuihua sat next to Suizi, sympathetically patting her daughter-in-law’s hand.

Look at how the child is suffering, her little face pale as wax!

Suizi’s smile was awkward but polite.

Indeed, she was overusing herself, but not her brain.

For two consecutive days, ha.

Suizi believed firmly that if the village doctor hadn’t said whatever it was that he said in front of Yu Jingting, he wouldn’t have let himself go last night.

So different from the restraint he’d shown the day before.

All of this started with those damn Smoked Meat Roll Pancakes.

If she hadn’t eaten so much that her stomach hurt, he wouldn’t have made a big deal and called the doctor over.

And if the doctor hadn’t said something to the street gossip, how would she have ended up unable to get off the kang due to her bow legs...

This is something she couldn’t talk about, she could only pretend to be sick in the corner of the kang.

Playing sick in front of her mother-in-law was just as awkward as holding in a fart in front of Jingting.

Unfortunately, her mother-in-law was very sympathetic and sat on the kang trying to warmly comfort her.

Attempting to use the ancestral massage techniques on Suizi’s head to relieve her "headache".

This made things really uncomfortable.

Suizi tried her best to get out of the situation, changing the topic and creating distractions.

Finally, she managed to dissuade her mother-in-law from the idea of giving her a massage.

Jingting returned just before lunch.

Looking at Suizi’s pitiful face, he came over and ruffled her hair.

"What’s wrong?"

"She has a headache. You came back just in time, help her with a proper massage."

Wang Cuihua reminded her son.

Suizi held her forehead, it seemed that she couldn’t escape the massage.

Jingting raised his eyebrows, his expression instantly turning wicked.

Seeing his bad look, Suizi heightened her guard, feeling that he wouldn’t say anything nice.

"For her ’illness’, where would massaging help? She needs an injection, I’ll give her a couple of shots later and she’ll be fine."

And they have to be his naturally endowed ’injections’, nothing else would work.

Geesh...

Suizi’s face turned instantly red. While her mother-in-law wasn’t paying attention, she twisted his waist hard. Would this man ever stop his loose talk?

Wang Cuihua was puzzled.

"How can pregnant women receive injections so casually?"

"So, this isn’t just a ’needle’." He said, arching his eyebrow mischievously in her direction.

"Jingting, how is your issue progressing?"

Suizi changed the topic. Her face was already burning.

She didn’t have his thick skin.

If they continued to discuss this subject, she would really lose her temper.

Jingting took the hint and redirected the conversation to the right direction.

He pulled out two pieces of paper from his pocket, unfolded them, revealing two promissory notes written by him.

These were not the original notes but were copied onto carbon paper.

"Those two fools didn’t notice the carbon paper when they heard about a profitable deal. They took the bait."

With these two copied versions, if the elders tried to modify the promissory notes, Jingting would be able to take advantage of them.

Now he just had to wait for the inheritance division on the eighth day.

"Alright, as long as the two of you discuss and agree on it, I will go cook. Jingting, whether it’s a massage or an injection, sort out Suizi as soon as possible, look at how she is suffering."

Wang Cuihua was murmuring to herself while heading outside.

Suizi was devastated, how did the topic get back to injections again!

"Jingting, I just thought of something regarding the lottery draw for the land distribution." She tried to steer the conversation towards a proper topic.

"Oh?"

Jingting pulled her to sit on his lap. Suizi struggled, but he gently spanked her.

"Behave yourself, you wild pig spirit! Are you eager for an injection? That can wait until it gets dark!"

He was such a man of principles. Could he let this little wild pig spirit have her way with him?

"????" She really wanted to bite him!

Jingting moved his hand somewhere else, he was now "ordered" to massage, an above-board reason to feel her up.

Not being able to resist him, Suizi gave up, she secretly consolidated all her strength, wanting to use her weight to make this scoundrel back down.

"Stop stoking the fire!" Jingting smacked her again, his tone now bearing a hint of warning.

"Is it, is it, everything I do in your eyes, everything is..." Suizi was too embarrassed to say those two words.

"Yes!" Jingting defended his stance brazenly.

Suizi rolled her eyes in exasperation, mumbling softly:

"If you’re not bothered about being squished, feel free to cuddle up. I... I’ve gained weight!"

She gave him a fierce ’white eye.’

Seen in Jingting’s eyes, however, her eyes seemed filled with spring water. She was probably worried that her mother-in-law would hear them, so she lowered her voice, which sounded more like a seductive whisper, making him feel as electrified with a hoarsening voice.

Jingting adjusted his sitting posture, realizing that he couldn’t let this little wild pig spirit tease him any longer. He followed up on her previous topic.

"What’s the matter with the draw for the land distribution?"

"There is so much land in the village. Not all of it could be fertile, right?"

"Of course."

The land, based on its quality, could be categorized as first-class, second-class, and sandy soil.

First-class land was the best, with a high yield. Second-class land might be hampered by things like tombstones or haystacks, which could reduce the yield.

Sandy soil was the worst, and no one wanted it.

Everyone wanted first-class land, but there was not enough to go around.

To compensate for this disparity, the village did a little on the size of the fields. If you were allocated second-class land or sandy soil, you would get a little extra area.

But everyone still preferred first-class land, less work for higher output, who wouldn’t want it?

Absolute fairness could never exist. It was impossible to satisfy everyone, hence the wisdom of the ancestors was put to use.

This wisdom was the lottery.

If you drew good land, it was a blessing from the ancestors. If not, you would have to blame your bad luck and accept your fate.

"The agricultural tools were distributed by drawing lots, but the land, being the most valuable asset, was reserved for last."

"Won’t the two uncles try to bribe the team captain, then? They even wanted to tamper with cattle drawing, I don’t believe they won’t try something with such a big thing as land drawing."

Being engrossed in rubbing her belly, Jingting seemed to not have heard.

Suizi continued:

"I guess they might use a method similar to the cattle drawing and stick the first-class land to the drawing box."

Not only rigging the lots, but they would also need to be drawn first.

This would prevent anyone from discovering their scheme.

While the two uncles and old lady Yu were scheming to alter the lots, Suizi and Jingting were carefully listening from their Secret Base.

Suizi pondered this matter during her free time over the past few days.

She thought of several methods that could counter the Yu family.

Taking this opportunity, she discussed them with Jingting.

"I believe one should not lightly initiate a fight. When necessary, it’s always better to secure our interests without hurting others. When confronted with a foe, if we have no choice but to hurt them, we should benefit ourselves while doing so. We should never hurt others without benefiting ourselves, it would be a pointless fight."

If Wang Cuihua were here and heard her daughter-in-law express these views, she would surely sigh deeply.

Ah, her daughter-in-law, such a considerate individual, with everyone bullying them, she still didn’t want to fight back.

Listen to what the girl has to say, never do something that hurts others while not benefiting us.

Was there a better and kinder girl?

Unfortunately, Jingting was not Wang Cuihua, he understood what Suizi was implying.

"Little missus, are you trying to inspire me with an edict here?"
